Truly an amazing work.

A supposedly scientific look at race by a man who otherwise did some great conversation work, helping to establish national parks, etc.
Adolf Hitler loved this book, calling it his "bible."

For a more detailed look at this book and its legacy, see:
Serwer, Adam. “White Nationalism’s Deep American Roots.” The Atlantic, April 2019. https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2019/04/adam-serwer-madison-grant-white-nationalism/583258/.

An amazing book and should be read by all especially white teenagers and young adults.

Madison Grant's prejudices and bigotry compiled into one volume, "The Passing of the Great Race" was his justification for eugenics and racism. In a letter to Grant, Adolf Hitler wrote, "This book is my Bible," and he used large passages of it in his own "Mein Kampf."

This book starts with the premise of the superiority of the Anglo-Saxon "race" and proceeds to distort history and biology to support that premise. It relies on such errant hypotheses as "cephalic index" (the ratio of a skull's width to it's depth), eye and hair color as indices of racial purity, and the shape of facial features to divide races into "high" and "low" classifications. It abounds with ethnic stereotypes. Its assumptions are questionable and its conclusions are absurd.

Should people read this? Absolutely. For those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

This book should be mandatory reading for all white people--especially those of school age, and double especially, by those attending Marxist indoctrination centers in colleges and universities. What's that you say? "Racist"? Why, because the information doesn't agree with your (whether you realize it or not) Jewish Marxist world view, which is based on lies and falsehoods, especially the doctrine of so-called "racial equality", of which only exists in a FANTASY WORLD.

Death to political correctness, i.e., Marxist mind control!
